I think the idea was to create an image that I *was* the pop-over chef.
Stupid tall, white hat that kept flopping over to one side. It *looked*
like a lop-sided pop-over.

Hmmm, popovers. Now you've done it. I'll be on a popover quest and
don't think there's anywhere in Florida where I can get one. First I
ever had was at the Harborside Inn at Edgartown, Mass in the summer of
1971 before they converted it to a resort. My last popover "fix" was
at the Jordan Pond House in Acadia Park, Maine back before the fire.
Their's are the best anywhere in my opinion.

She was delicious in that Haunted Hotel tv series a couple of years ago.

We'll be doing our usual here for Super Bowl night...dinner and a movie.
I wouldn't mind seeing the Lady GaGa show, though...maybe it'll show up
on youtube

I went to the first NFL-AFL championship game, which I vaguely remember
as being in 1966 or 1967 on assignment for the newspaper. I didn't know
**** about football, really, and I still don't, but I went along with
the sports writing team to LA to do quickie interviews of KC area fans
who went out to see their team play Green Bay. I was "good" at
approaching folks and getting quotes from them. I didn't see that much
of the game, but I know the Chiefs were slaughtered.

That was the first and last pro football game I watched. I only remember
a couple of the players' names from those days, but they were
biggies...Bart Starr and Ray Nitschke for Green Bay and Len Dawson for
the Chiefs.

Years ago while on a business trip (I think late-80's) I was standing in
line at the ticket counter at Baltimore International airport. Guy in
line in front of me turned around to look at something and I realized it
was Johnny Unitas. He was already somewhat hobbled over and moved with
some difficulty. I remember looking up stats on him after that
indicated he was 6'1" in his playing years. Definitely must have shrunk
in retirement because I was almost a head taller than him.

My other ancient football memory was from your neck of the woods ... Les
Shaw's restaurant. The Detroit Lions and the New York Giants were in
town to play an annual pre-season exhibition game. I worked at Les
Shaw's at the time as a busboy and the owner invited me to have
breakfast on game day with the Lions who had reserved the place for the
pre-game meal. Sat between Joe Don Looney and some other huge player
who's name I can't remember.

I was jaded in my youth because Dick James all around "back" for the
redskins lived a few doors down from me (back when football was just a
job and not a particularly well paying one)
We used to see the other players at his house all the time. That was
when football barely made it to TV. The only thing that made then
unique is they did not have a regular job or work for the government.
Tom Nomina, (Dolphins and Broncos) lives in my neighborhood now but he
got busted up pretty bad in the few years he played. I always feel
sorry for the guys who never got to be millionaires and now they only
have the scars to remind them of being in the show.

In the 60's we used to drink with a lot of the Raiders at Cactus Jacks in
Oakland. Down the street from one of our computer centers. Was the days
when they made good money, but not fantastic coin. In 1979, used to see
Jim Otto in one of the places I got morning coffee on way to work. Was
really sad, nice guy, successful businessman, and crippled all up. I think
hip replacement, both knees, etc.

Bull****.

I can't believe there's a subject on earth about which you don't know ****. You know everything
about everything! If in doubt, just ask your BFF who backs up everything you say.

I can't believe you think I give a flying **** about you, your comments,
or your opinions. You're still the same old right-wing extremist racist
you've been for years, and therefore everything you post is "colored" by
that. Have a nice day and do the world and your long suffering family a
favor: drop dead.

Ewww. Hope you're not too upset. Did I say something untrue?

I'm not upset at all. You're just another right-wing, racist, flaming
asshole, and therefore nothing you post matters. The world will be a
better place when one of your ailments or injuries forces you into a
permanent dirt nap.
